Local Context, Dundalk

Peninsula Damage The Adjuster Needs Documented Right.

An insurance claim inspection is not a look from the driveway.

It is a systematic examination of every roof component, documented to a standard a carrier can act on. On the Dundalk peninsula that means documenting damage inland inspections overlook. Wind uplift off Bear Creek and the Patapsco gets recorded by location, severity, and failure mode across the whole roof plane. Hail gets chalk-tested, and on waterfront metal the coating compromise gets staged for the accelerated corrosion the tidal environment will cause. Tropical-remnant water intrusion gets traced through the deck to the true entry point on cape cod rooflines, not just where the stain appears. Ice dam damage on under-insulated mid-century homes gets characterized by its cause sequence.

We document, measure, and write the scope, with the salt-air compounding included so the claim reflects the real condition. We do not adjust, negotiate, settle, value, or maximize claims on your behalf, because Maryland law reserves that for licensed public adjusters. The inspection is free, the written report is yours, and there is no obligation to hire us. On the Patapsco Neck peninsula, where Hurricane Isabel's 2003 surge set the local benchmark and the 2012 derecho found every aging fastener, that documentation standard is what separates an evaluated claim from a disputed one. Call (443) 826-3739.

Why It Matters

A Written Scope Beats A Phone Call Every Time.

Most denied roof claims are not denied because the damage was not real.

They are denied because the homeowner described the damage over the phone, the carrier sent an adjuster who saw a roof from the driveway, and the claim closed before anyone walked the shingles. Our inspection produces what a phone call cannot. Close-up photos of every hail impact and every wind-lifted shingle, a measured count of damaged squares, and a written line-item repair scope in the language carriers expect. You hand that document to your carrier when you file. The claim moves on facts, not on guesswork. Call (443) 826-3739 to schedule yours.

Our Process. Four Steps. Clear Boundaries.

  1. Step 01

    Inspection

    A Supreme project manager walks the roof. We photograph every shingle impact, every lifted tab, every torn pipe boot. We measure damaged squares. We check the soft metals (AC fins, gutter aprons, downspouts) for matching impact patterns that corroborate the storm.

  2. Step 02

    Written Scope

    You receive a written repair scope. Photo-documented damage, measured square footage, materials list, and the repair line items as a contractor would price them. The document is yours. Hand it to your carrier when you file.

  3. Step 03

    You File The Claim

    You call your insurance carrier and open the claim yourself. We are not on the call. We do not negotiate or settle with the adjuster. That is what licensed public adjusters are for. If your carrier asks technical questions about the repair scope, we are available to clarify by phone, in writing.

  4. Step 04

    We Repair What You Authorize

    Once your claim resolves, we install the repair you authorize. Roof, siding, gutters, soft metals. Whatever your carrier covered and you chose to have us replace. Standard residential projects wrap in 1-3 days on-site.

What The Written Scope Includes.

  • Date, time, and weather conditions of the inspection
  • Photo set: every hail impact, every wind-lifted shingle, every damaged flashing or pipe boot, with timestamps
  • Measured roof dimensions, squares of damage, slope and pitch notes
  • Line-item repair scope in carrier-compatible language (shingle type, underlayment, drip edge, ridge cap, ice-and-water shield where applicable)
  • Soft-metals damage corroboration (AC condenser fins, gutter aprons, downspouts). Supports the storm narrative
  • Notes on code-required upgrades for your jurisdiction (e.g., synthetic underlayment in FL; ice-and-water shield in MD)
  • No pricing on the homeowner-facing document. Pricing lives in the separate estimate you receive after authorizing the repair
Why It Matters

What We Do. And What We Cannot Do.

Supreme Restorations is a licensed roofing contractor, not a public adjuster.

We inspect, photograph, measure, and provide a written scope of repair. We perform the repair work you authorize after your claim resolves. We do not adjust, negotiate, settle, value, or maximize insurance claims on your behalf. We do not accept an Assignment of Benefits. We do not waive, absorb, rebate, or pay any portion of your deductible. Those activities are reserved for licensed public adjusters and attorneys under state law. If you need claim representation, hire a licensed public adjuster. We work with whoever you choose.

How do you document the peninsula damage that inland inspections miss in Dundalk?

Three things a curbside look skips: wind uplift mapped across the plane, the salt-air corrosion staged on every metal component, and the true water-entry point traced through the deck on a cape cod. All photographed to carrier format.

Do you stage salt-air corrosion on Bear Creek and Patapsco metal components for a claim?

Yes. Storms near Sparrows Point and the Patapsco strip metal coatings, then salt air eats the flashing, vents, and gutters underneath. We document that progression so the claim covers the metal, which is usually where the real Dundalk damage sits.

What does an inspection examine on Dundalk's mid-century steelworker homes?

The 1940-70 cape cods and row houses in Eastpoint, Gray Manor, and Berkshire: eaves for winter ice backup, low rooflines for direct bay wind, aging shingles for granule loss, and all soft metal for corrosion.

Will you negotiate the claim or accept Assignment of Benefits in Maryland?

No to both. Maryland law reserves negotiating and settling claims for licensed public adjusters, so we only inspect and document. You stay the insured party. A Dundalk contractor promising to fight insurance or cover your deductible is breaking the law.

Is the inspection free, and am I obligated to file a claim or hire you?

Free, no strings. No cost, no claim required, no deductible waivers ever. The report is yours to keep or take elsewhere. On the peninsula, many owners just want the metal components checked before they fail. Call (443) 826-3739.

When should I get an inspection after a storm?

Within 30 days of the storm event for any visible damage, and within 90 days if your neighbors filed claims even if you have not noticed anything from the ground. Hail bruising lets water track under the shingles for months before a ceiling stain shows up. By then your filing window is often closing and the carrier reclassifies the damage as wear-and-tear, which is not covered.

Can you document hail damage that is not visible from the ground?

Yes. That is the entire point of the inspection. Hailstones larger than a dime bruise the asphalt mat under the granules without lifting the granule layer. The shingle looks fine from the driveway, but the impact compresses the mat so it sheds granules over the next 12-18 months and water tracks under the lap. We photograph every impact at close range, measure the square footage, and the written scope documents what is invisible from the ground.

Do I get the written scope to keep, or do you send it directly to my carrier?

The written scope is yours. We send it to you. You decide whether to file a claim and which document to hand the carrier. We are not on the call with your insurance company unless you specifically ask us to clarify a technical question in writing, and you can share the report with any contractor you choose.

Are you a public adjuster?

No. We are a licensed roofing contractor (MHIC #146204 in Maryland; licensed and active in Florida). Public adjusters are licensed insurance professionals who negotiate and settle claims on a homeowner's behalf. That is a different license and a different scope of work. If you need someone to negotiate with your carrier, hire a licensed public adjuster. We will install the repair regardless of who advocates for the claim.

Will you handle my deductible or waive it?

No. Waiving, rebating, absorbing, or paying any portion of your deductible is insurance fraud in every state we operate in, and a felony in Florida specifically. Any contractor who offers to do that is offering to commit a felony with you. We do not. Your deductible is what you pay; the insurance covers the rest of the qualifying repair.

How long is the inspection? Do I need to be home?

A typical inspection runs 45-90 minutes depending on roof size and complexity, longer on multi-plane or tile roofs. Ideally an adult is home so we can walk through the findings with you and answer questions in person, but if your schedule is tight we can inspect, photograph, and email the written scope the same day.

What does an inspection cost?

The inspection is free. No upfront cost, no hidden fee, no deposit, and no commitment to use Supreme Restorations for the repair if your claim is approved. The written report and repair scope are free as well, and you keep both either way, even if you hire a different contractor or decide to do nothing at all.
Storm Claim Window

Maryland Storm Claim Windows Close Faster Than You Think.

Maryland insurance policies vary by carrier, but most require prompt reporting after a storm event. The longer you wait, the more the carrier can argue the damage worsened from neglect rather than the storm itself. Hail bruising lets water under the shingles for months before a ceiling stain shows up, often right when your claim window is closing. A free inspection now catches the damage while it still qualifies.
